The Spirit of Lance Armstrong

Lance Armstrong has shown us all how to conquer our fears, how to face what life has thrown at us and how to beat pain as well as cancer. I have been touched by the pain people are feeling over these weeks as anniversaries of our loved ones death appear on the calendar.
I saw this quote from Lance Armstrong and thought it might helps us all realise that although the pain of loss is always there, that pain is like a flowing roller coaster. We have a choice…we can give into that pain, or we can fight it and use it as motivation for our future happiness. As Lance says
“Pain is temporary. It may last a minute or an hour, or a day, or a year but eventually it will subside and something else will take its place. If I quite it will last forever”
